I’m getting my first block too on Radiance the week before

Switch to Radiance May 27 and I’m in! Not giving up my aft corner suite to “jump ship!”

We sent ours in for 4 cruises. OBC showed up on all 4. Now it’s disappeared on 2 of them. Both are the new cruise planner format. Looks like a call to RC is in order.

Keep checking for earlier and get there 30 minutes before scheduled check in

October 23

@KLA my original check in was 1-1:30 but just recently 12-12:30 opened up so I moved us up an hour. This is for Symphony. Keep checking yours to see if earlier times have been added. I’m one of those rule followers so will wait until high noon to show up. Ok honestly 11:45 sitting in the car.

I’m looking forward to the champagne bar on Radiance when we do Alaska in May. Sipping bubbles watching glaciers go by! Sounds like a slice of Heaven

Agree love champagne bar! Someone on Facebook is trying to start a petition to keep Allure in her “natural” state! It would be nice to keep her as she is. Adding restaurants is fine but I think all the slides take away from the beauty of the ship.

Love to eat lunch in Solarium Bistro on sea days. All those salads!! We usually end each night in CP too, sipping our “desert,” chocolate martinis

Did you read the comments at the end?

@twangsterdo you think she may get her Amp next spring before she starts Europe for summer/fall 2022?

Thanks @SpeedNoodlesfor the tip to hit up @Travelerlive blog

I’ve not been on her but have been on oasis 3 times and symphony next month and harmony in March. Allure has a huge fan club! The current cruise director is really good too and pretty sure he’s onboard through December. If you’re on Facebook, go follow him. Marc Walker: https://www.facebook.com/bingbongcruisedirector/

No. She’s the last of the original Oasis class. Kind of wish they’d keep her that way. All those slides take away from the ship IMO

Yes I’ve seen that one too. I did hear that Flight would be back sometime in October We sail October 23. I like to plan my shows and dinners beforehand so I’m always looking for an update.

So apparently prices are dropping as sail date gets closer. My October Symphony beach club is currently at $179.99 and that’s with the current “sale.” yes, your price is very good

Hmmmm maybe I’ll get lucky a few weeks out!

What ship are you on? Symphony has floating cabana at $1699 late October

We did one in Barbados and I didn’t snorkel. I’m glad I didn’t! It was mayhem! More than half the people were clueless. Dive boat gave no instructions whatsoever. People were getting kicked because it was so crowded. My husband saved a guy from drowning because the dive crew were busy talking and not paying attention. We did have beach time too. Id research each excursion and book the smallest group you can. Where we anchored, there were 2 other boats there. It really was awful. So crowded and people floundering because they got no instructions

It’s at 178.99 for my October Symphony which is up from 168.99 and that’s the “sale” price! $10 more on sale! Lol I bought it for $106 with the last great 45% sale back in February. It’s only gone up since.

Which ship? I’ve seen the schedule for Symphony and Harmony in some Facebook groups

Not on that class of ship. I would only consider it for oasis or quantum class ships. That’s where you’d really get the benefits. With that being said, I personally wouldn’t buy it. Just not a fan of “buying” perks.

I’m looking forward to sleeping in on sea days (that’s like 8:30 lol) and not fretting about getting a pool chair because I didn’t get up to the pool deck earlier.

That’s not how the protocol reads though
